This is a matter of taste and it is your car. The LED's look fine, but consider whether they may be a little too "high tech" for a 986. Do you think the appearance would be out of synch with the style of the rest of the car? If there are reliability and fitment issues, those are additional negatives regarding the LED's.

I considered the LED's before I embarked on my litronic purchase/refurbishment. http://986forum.com/forums/general-discussions/54697-advice-used-litronics.html Basically I found that I agree with BigJake111 regarding the look of the litronics. To me, the litronics update both the appearance and function of the lights while blending smoothly into the design of the rest of the car.



I believe that for a $1000 you could probably find a nice set of used litronics. You might need to try car-parts.com or Ebay and buy each light from a different seller and they clean them up.
